Game Thread, Twins vs Blue Jays 5/29 @7:10pm CT

[sampleSizeOfOne]

We can expect a regression to the mean by the middle innings.

Is the mean of smoke and mirrors, um, sky colored waters?

[twinsnorth49]

Blue Jays announcers trying to jinx us.

[twinsnorth49]

Man that air must be heavy, that was laced!

[ashbury]

Boy, Colabello is smooth out there in left field. And by smooth I mean in a zigzaggy way.

[formerly33]

I meant to just check in and see what the score was...and had to run to MLB. 4-1 Minnesota after 2. Glad ya'll are having fun.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

That would be 4-1 CBU after 2.

 

Er, i should include units, shouldn't i?

 

4 runs for Minnesota, 1 run for Toronto after 2 innings.

 

Sorry about that.

You should know better by now.

Sorry about that.

That's 2.0 runs per inning for Minnesota, and 0.5 runs for Toronto, for those of you who keep score in Metric.

The next heads-tails coin flip must only have a 22% chance of coming up heads.

[twinsnorth49]

It's 13 degrees celsius at Target. Much higher in fahrenheit.

That's how it works. At least, for 84% of the cases.

No, you are thinking of fire and ice, where the mean = lukewarm water

[Gibby]

 

Did we shift up or down?

 

  Yes.

[ashbury]

It's 13 degrees celsius at Target. Much higher in fahrenheit.

5.54E+01 in Fahrenheit. It's no wonder people have switched away from it; too much multiplication and long division.

[Gibby]

  whuts with the E? Their aint no letters in math.

[ashbury]

That one was hit right into the shift. Molitor = GENIUS.

The multiplication and long division was too much for me so I cheated and used a computer. Fahrenheit's tough.

E... that's an error, isn't it?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

If foul homer is a long strike, i guess a foul bunt is a short strike.

[Gibby]

 

E... that's an error, isn't it?

 

  We had this crazy math in high school. Had all kinds letters. Thankfully I was an athlete, and had a kid that did all that for me.

[ashbury]

E0: manager was caught napping

Now there's a movie i should know better than i do. In fact several bits, if i recall, hinge seriously on confusion regarding units...

 

Er... is that a tie game i see before me?

[USAFChief]

The feel of this game just changed.  Even in metric.

[stringer bell]

Well, well, well. We're done scoring, so.

[SwainZag]

Damn....just sailed on May and Donaldson crushed it.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I was just about to say:

 

"Too much hard contact against May tonight"

[ashbury]

May tagged for a 3-run homer by Donaldson. 4-4, still in the top of the fifth. CBU.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

E0: manager was caught napping

so what gets scored eiei0?

[USAFChief]

For anyone actually at the game:  Encarnacion make it to first yet?
